Hi, I’m Shannon Urquiola—founder of Not Your Average Autism Mom and a mom raising an autistic son.
I’ve lived this life for years, and I know how overwhelming, isolating, and uncertain it can feel—especially when you’re trying to hold everything together while showing up for your child every single day.
This isn’t just another resource.
And it’s not just a community.
This is coaching, support, and connection—all in one place.
Inside, you’re not left to figure things out on your own—you’re guided every step of the way.
You’ll get real coaching to help you move through the overwhelm, the doubt, and the constant second-guessing—so you can feel more steady, more confident, and less alone in your everyday life.
Because the truth is… you weren’t prepared for this version of motherhood. None of us were.
But you don’t have to keep doing it alone.
We only open our doors a few times a year—and if you’re here right now, this is your chance.
Most moms who join stay. Not because they have to … but because they finally found what they were missing.
We support moms raising autistic children at every stage—from early diagnosis through adulthood.
And yes… we even have grandmothers inside too, and they love being part of this space.
👉 Join us now. Step inside and get the support you’ve been needing. You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
Real Coaching—From Someone Who’s Living It
This isn’t just support.
This is real coaching from someone who understands your life.
Inside, you’ll get:
âś” Ongoing coaching to help you move through overwhelm, doubt, and second-guessing
âś” Real-life guidance you can actually use in your everyday moments
âś” Support navigating relationships, stress, and the emotional weight you carry
Because this journey doesn’t just impact your child… it impacts you.
Your energy. Your relationships. Your life.
And you matter too.
This is the kind of support many moms spend hundreds (even thousands) trying to find—
but here, it’s part of your everyday life.
👉 Join now and start feeling more steady, more clear, and more like yourself again.
This Is for You If…
This is for you if you’re tired of holding it all together on the outside…
while feeling overwhelmed on the inside.
If you find yourself second-guessing everything—
wondering if you’re doing enough, saying the right things, making the right decisions…
If your days feel heavy, unpredictable, and mentally exhausting—
and you don’t have a space where you can just be honest about that.
If you’re constantly thinking about your child, your family, your responsibilities…
and somewhere along the way, you stopped thinking about you.
If you feel alone in this—even when you’re surrounded by people.
If you’re craving guidance, not just information…
support, not just advice…
and a place where you don’t have to explain every little thing.
And if a small part of you is thinking…
“I just need something to change.”
Then you’re exactly where you need to be.

This is the kind of ongoing support most moms don’t even realize is possible—until they finally have it.
Here’s what happens when moms stop trying to do this alone…
Blair Miller -Rocky Mount, NC
This membership didn’t just support me, it changed everything for me as a mom. Since joining, I’ve seen more progress in my son than I ever thought possible. But just as important, I’ve grown too. The coaching gives me direction, clarity, and real tools I can use every week—not just ideas that sound good, but things that actually work in our day-to-day life.Â
I joined in October 2020, and looking back now, I can’t imagine doing this journey without it.
Samantha Crocker - Hope, AR
Joining this community felt like a deep exhale I didn’t even realize I needed.
For the first time in a long time, I don’t feel like I’m figuring this out on my own. The training, coaching, and resources inside have helped me grow so much as a mom, and I’m learning things I can actually use in our everyday life.
I was the very first member to join in 2020, and I can honestly say—it was one of the best decisions I’ve made on this journey. You won’t regret it.
Angela Taylor - Lawrenceville, GA
Since joining in February 2023, I don’t feel alone anymore—and that alone has made such a difference.
The support and encouragement from other moms is constant. On the hard days, I log into the Village and read about the wins and progress others are sharing, and it lifts me up in a way that’s hard to explain.
I may stay more in the background, but I’m always learning, always taking something in.
My journey may look different, but we’re all searching for that place where we belong… and this is mine.
Melissa Craig -Â
Hutchinson, KS
I came here looking for a community… and found so much more.
I found a safe place to work on myself—and that has changed everything. Not just in how I navigate this parenting journey, but in so many other areas of my life too.
I’ll never forget joining on my birthday, in September of 2022 with tears rolling down my face. It was, without a doubt, the best gift I’ve ever given myself.
Pamela Levine - Bristow, VA
This membership has been life-changing for me. For the first time, I feel supported by moms who truly get it. Along with that comes real guidance around education, coaching that helps me navigate day-to-day challenges, and a resource library I can turn to whenever I need it.
I’m so thankful to be part of Not Your Average Autism Mom since February 2022.
Melanie DeLuca -Â
Casco, MI
Being part of this membership has given me the kind of support and understanding I didn’t even realize I was missing. I joined in 2020 when it first started. The moms here truly get it—because they’ve lived it.
There’s a level of understanding and connection that you just don’t find everywhere, and it makes all the difference.
Jenn Hill-Baker -Â
Columbia, SC
What you get here goes way beyond resources and strategies. It’s the connection with other moms who have lived this, who just get it without needing an explanation. It’s also becoming that support for someone else who’s right where you once were.
I joined in July of 2021 and it has been the best decision I’ve made for myself since my son’s diagnosis. For the first time, I don’t feel like I’m doing this alone.

I’ve known Shannon both personally and professionally for many years, and I’ve seen firsthand the dedication she brings to the autism community.
She’s not only raising a son on the spectrum—she’s been a strong, consistent advocate for families for years.
If you’re raising a child on the spectrum, I highly recommend adding Not Your Average Autism Mom to your support system. You’ll be so glad you did.
